8 Reasons You Should Join UCC Ultimate

Here are just some of the many reasons why UCC Ultimate is THE club to join!

REASON 1

Ultimate Frisbee is one of the most beginner-friendly sports you’ll ever find – there isn’t a more fun-loving, spirited and encouraging community than Ultimate.

A stand-out feature of the club is the openness and accepting nature of its members, especially to first-years and new members. We pride ourselves on being a club where you are not only guaranteed to learn a new and exciting sport, but make new friends for life.

REASON 2

Ultimate Frisbee is a versatile sport – played over different divisions, on different surfaces, so you’re sure to find something you like.

PLAY Indoors | Outdoors | Beaches

Open | Mixed | Ladies

Besides competing at varsity level, many of our members also compete at All-Ireland Championships with other clubs like Rebel (Cork) and Ballincollig (Cork).

REASON 3

Ultimate Frisbee is a highly athletic sport, combining the non-stop movement and endurance of soccer, the agility of basketball, the aerial passing and team tactics of American Football, and the constant, manic action of hurling.

Stick with us and you’ll be doing cool things in no time. Spicy throws, incredible jumps, layouts, insane Ds – and looking good while you’re at it.

REASON 4
